I should take my own advice and stop trying to stuff too much detail into quarter scale :)This is the fifth, the most simple, and (please!!) let it be the final version of the medieval stove.
It's all made of card - painted, with a gesso texture on the white bits.There'll be a chimney hood above it to catch the smoke, but a lot of soot will go on the cooktop and back wall. Cooking in medieval houses must have been messy and smelly! They just made a fire on the stone cooktop cooked things around or above it.
As for a bread oven - my weaver is out of luck. He's going to have to go out and buy his loaves - he'll be too busy weaving to make bread anyway :)
The stove will be sitting in the corner of the kitchen near the Stairway to Nowhere (cheating! - just a hint of a stairwell to the top floor).

I had not the slightest doubt that you would have done a fantastic job and "clean" (so to speak ...)

Looks great! It doesn't look like it was made of card at all:)
ReplyDeleteFantastic - what paper can do... if it was combined with an artist like you... ;O)

Hey, I'm blushing here, Birgit! :D
ReplyDeleteDon't worry about the bread oven. It was common in medieval times for the entire village to use one communal oven (usually the town bakers) to do all their cooking and baking. The food was prepared at home, then taken to the bakers to to cooked in his ovens after he'd finished his daily bake.
ReplyDeleteI am amazed Glenda. Wow, your kitchen is looking so detailed.
